Sofia in snow

Friday, January 27th, 2012

This week it has snowed almost constantly here in Sofia. I usually don’t like the winter season but at the same time am I happy to be here, as Sofia is one of the most beautiful cities in winter time for me. Yesterday I got inspired while taking a walk and made the movie below, enjoy! This is my love song to Sofia:

 

Of course who can resist to take some pictures also?

I will probably not be blogging for a while because I will be going on an offline holiday, that is, a holiday where I will not bring my computer. What I will bring is pen and paper so maybe I have something to write about when I get back to my current home in Bulgaria in the middle of January.

Until then, have a great time & enjoy your holidays!

Bulgarian recipe: Sirene po Shopski

Wednesday, December 14th, 2011

Second recipe posted on this blog, also this time from Bulgaria and again vegetarian. Bulgaria have really high quality of vegetables and other ingredients which makes the food here incredible fresh and tasty. Again, in this recipe there is the Bulgarian white cheese which is not to be found in most other countries (it is not the same as feta cheese).

Sirene po Shopski (2 portions)

400 gram white cheese
150 gram yellow cheese
2 eggs
2 roasted peppers
2 hot peppers
2 tomatoes
Parsley

Cut the cheese, peppers and tomatoes into eatable size pieces (don’t mix it). Take two Gyuveche pot (earthware pots) and first add a layer of cheese, then the peppers and tomatoes and finally a second layer of cheese. Heat the pots in the oven until the cheese have melted. Add the eggs on top and put the pots back into the oven until the eggs have the consistency that you want. Top with parsley and let cool down for a short while.
